Music & Motion Dance Seeks Dancers for 2008 Season
"Music & Motion Dance is one of the few companies offering teens a chance
to have professional performance experience unlike any other. This is not
a dance school, there are no competitions, there are no fees, just a unique
opportunity to dance, create and be part of a very tight knit cast
that has come together out of friendship and a pure love of dance."
Music & Motion Dance, a 501 c 3 non-profit, pre-professional dance company is currently seeking 4 new dancers (male/female) for the 2008 season, which runs from November 2007 through December 2008. Auditions will be held on Sunday October 21st and 28th at 1:30 pm at the Conservatory of Music in Harleysville, PA . Dancers should be between the ages of 15 - 22 years and have at least 2 or more years of current dance training/experience in any of these styles - ballet, jazz, tap, lyrical, modern, funk, or hip hop. Please see web site for details and to request an audition - http://www.music-and-motion.com/auditions.html or call 610-394-9182.

Founded in 2000, under the artistic direction of Steven Weisz, Music & Motion is a fresh, innovative, performance-oriented, youth dance company. Rather than relying on a single dance style or technique, Music & Motion has developed its own unique movement for each new dance work created. The variety of ecletic styles incorporated into its programs include ballet, jazz, tap, lyrical, modern, funk, hip hop and acrobatic styles.
Music & Motion Dance has performed throughout the tri-state area and even internationally to a range of audiences in its short yet diverse history. With a deep commitment to group collaboration and exposing new audiences to dance and the performing arts, the company has won both critical acclaim as well as many new fans.
Music & Motion Dance continues to reach a wide range of audiences each year with mesmeric dances and unique performance concepts. The body of work created by this group, all of which has been created and choreographed by the entire cast, is as diverse as its members.
Commissioned dances by the company have included Primal for the Philadelphia Zoo and Futura for the Franklin Institute. The group now in its fifth year as a participant in the Philly Fringe and Live Arts Festival was one of the first youth based companies to be incorporated, presenting Illuminescence in 2004, Elements in 2005, To A Different Beat in 2006, Red in 2007 and Continents for 2008.
This collaborative effort of this group is rich in synergy, imagination, celebration and spirit. Audiences have responded with enthusiasm, finding themselves caught up in a world of exhilarating rhythm, movement and music created by this multi-talented group.
